Dear Kentucky Girl;

Your husband is playing with fire, and he's gonna get burned!

My ex husband played with the same fire for many years. I, too, loved him with all my heart, and felt that if I continued to be loving, and accepting of what love he showed me, that eventually he would realize the error of his ways, and once again turn his focus on only me. I didn't want to cause waves that would have him resenting me for the rest of our lives, and I wanted him to be the one to realize the need for repentance, so it could be more fully executed.

I was dead wrong. I should never have allowed the "best friend" situation to continue, even if that meant him having bad feelings toward me. If I had acted years ago, to eradicate his unacceptable behavior, I'm sure we would be married now. Because I allowed him to take advantage of my loving, accepting nature, he pushed the limit further and further, until it got to the point that there was to be no healing. Don't let it happen to your marriage!
Be strong, and do what it takes now!

Dear Kentucky girl,
I'm a man but my thought is this: If I were a woman and my husband cheated on me once, there would never be a second time or chance. Its impossible to build or keep a marriage in that situation.

Trust and communication is the basic foundation of every relationship. You'll never have that again, now that your husband chose to cheat on you. Follow your gut and don't allow him to think this is ever okay. You'll be happier when you are single and not worrying that he is going to do this again to you.
